Myofunction Junction of Minnesota

It was a great weekend with the best of the best! (And a few tornado and flood warnings to top it off). Meeting up with old friends and meeting new ones. Lots of great insights and information to help clients! We never stop learning!

It sure makes working after a long weekend more fun when you get spoiled! Did you know that as children are growing it's important to include chewy and crunchy foods to help develop the jaw?! Thank you so much for the yummy treat!

So proud of this young man! He worked hard through therapy without complaint and always had a smile for me. He is all set to start orthodontics and have a great outcome!

We have been doing a lot of celebrating at . Here are just a few of our recent habit elimination success stories!!! I am so proud of each one of these amazing young people who worked so hard to stop a habit that has been causing teeth to shift and detrimental jaw growth. 👏👏👏🥳🥳🥳 They are now on a much better path for developing healthy smiles!

Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads out there! New Dads, old dads, bonus dads, adoptive dads, the dads who just step in when they are needed...you all make a lasting difference in a child's life. Have a wonderful day!! 😊

It was an amazing weekend at MN Mission of Mercy meeting so many wonderful people donating their time and talents to help others. 🥰

What a lovely surprise from Pan Orthodontics! Thank you so much -you made my day!!

I am feeling so humbled and blessed after being honored by the Saint Paul District Dental Society last evening and then waking up to a nice message from a new client. It is truly not about me, but all the people working together to address the needs of others. Thank you all so much for making me feel like I am making a difference in this world... and it is all of us working together that accomplishes that difference.

Happy Mothers Day to all Mothers!! Have a wonderful blessed day!!

Happy World Breathing Day!! Breathing is an automatic function and we rarely even think about it, but how we breathe is so vital to our overall health. Did you know that nasal breathing actually increases blood flow and oxygen delivery throughout your body? So close those lips, get your tongue up on the palate and take a nice calm healing breath through your nose.

Wishing you all a very blessed Easter!

Reflecting on all the love, mercy and grace this day brings. Have a blessed Good Friday.

Don't you just love spring in Minnesota??!!! That is some HEAVY snow! Mouth breathing will sap what little energy you have left... I won't help you shovel -but if you have a habitual mouth breathing habit I can help
😁

Lips are so important! Not only are they unique, they are the most sensitive part of your body..they also convey emotion ..So give a little smile 🙂😙😘 Have a wonderful Valentines Day!! 💋

Happy New Year!!! May the new year bring you health and happiness! Last year was a whirlwind and I'm looking forward to helping even more people this year. I took a step back from social media last year so that I could put my focus where it should be - my clients and my family. I am still here and thriving but the social media will take a back burner to what truly matters. Wishing you all a wonderful year ahead.

So thankful for all of you this Christmas! Have a blessed Christmas!

During this time of Thanksgiving, we pause to count our blessings. The freedom of running a small business, the support of a wonderful community, and the opportunity to serve all of you. May your Thanksgiving be as rewarding and wonderful as you’ve made mine. Also, remember that the family member chewing with their mouth open may have an orofacial myofunctional disorder. 🦃

Another amazing IAOM convention in the books! Lots of great learning and wonderful connections with colleagues.

I'm thinking of the unbelievable courage it took to pursue the dreams of freedom and independence... “May we always cherish the freedom that others fought so bravely to secure for us.” (Unknown). Have a wonderful 4th of July!

Remembering those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for all of us ...
Have a blessed Memorial Day.

Uncontrolled allergies 🤧-even for a season-can lead to an Orofacial Myofunctional Disorder. A season of mouth breathing caused by allergies can lead to a chronic habit of mouth breathing. When you breathe through your mouth all those allergens in the air are no longer filtered and purified before hitting your tonsils and adenoids. This can cause tonsils and adenoids to become enlarged ...causing more difficulty breathing through your nose. It's a vicious circle! Mouth breathing can actually alter the growth pattern of the face! It is so important to get allergies under control. If you or your child already have a habit of mouth breathing it's time to see an Orofacial Myologist.

Doesn't everybody dress up like a dinosaur to graduate from myofunctional therapy?🦖. This sweet young lady has completed therapy and is all ready to start Invisalign with and have a nice stable outcome🤩🥳

Have a beautiful blessed Easter!!
